* Rejuvinate Your Lips for Fall *

LIPSTICKS THAT LOVE YOU
Yes, lipstick is what you wear when you want to get fancy. But nourishing formulas have every- day appeal, moisturizing and protecting your mouth’s delicate skin. Look for ones infused with antioxidants and natural emollients, such as vitamin E, coconut oil, beeswax, and argan oil.

To keep lips soft and healthy, Anne Marie Fine, N.M.D., naturopathic physician and skin specialist , suggests focusing your efforts at night. “If you use balm under lipstick, the color slides right off”, says Fine. Before bed, slick on a rich slave-and twice weekly, use a lip scrub first. In the morning, you’ll wake to a smooth, lipstick ready pout.

For a soft glow,” use a fingertip to gently spread on one thin coat, then blot,” recommends makeup artist Jody Cohen, creator of Cosmoholic Cosmetics. Avoid working too much pigment into the corners of your mouth, so your lipstick wears off gracefully.
